State Senator Sonia Chang-Diaz officially announced this week that she's running for Governor. She joins two others in their quest for the Democratic nomination. All the while, Governor Baker has not yet said if he'll seek re-election to what would be an unprecedented third term.
It may seem early, but this race is getting interesting and there's a lot to unpack even though we're over a year away from voters heading to the polls.
We're joined by WBUR senior political reporter Anthony Brooks and Kimberly Atkins Stohr, senior opinion writer at the Boston Globe, to preview what we can expect for the race going forward.

This segment aired on June 24, 2021.
